Cheniere Finds Funding for LNG Export Terminal

Cheniere Energy said Thursday it expects to receive about $3.4 billion in financing by month's end for what could be the first liquefied-natural-gas export facility in the continental U.S.

An export facility in the lower 48 states will allow U.S. natural-gas producers to export the fuel, which has become plentiful as new drilling techniques have unlocked gas in shale formations throughout the country.
